August might be the hottest part of summer, but some Oregonians are already daydreaming about sweater weather, hot cider and pumpkin spice lattes.

Those dreams may have to wait as the Old Farmer's Almanac has predicted that Oregon's warm weather will continue through fall.

Here are the Old Farmer's Almanac predictions for fall 2025 in Oregon.

What kind of weather is the Old Farmer's Almanac predicting for fall 2025 in Oregon?

According to the Old Farmer's Almanac, the Pacific Northwest will have a "warmer-than-average" autumn in 2025.

The western half of Oregon is predicted to have a warm, wet fall, and the eastern half is predicted to have a warm, dry fall.

Predictions also indicate that while much of the nation will experience below-average rainfall, the Pacific Northwest will likely see its familiar wet season, despite the heat.

"September and October will be warmer and wetter than normal overall," said the Old Farmer's Almanac. September will be a "mostly sunny month with brief cool spells and light rain early and mid-month, then turning very warm late."

The Pacific Northwest will also see an average temperature of 63 degrees in September, one degree higher than normal, and 1 inch of rainfall.

October in the Pacific Northwest is expected to have "a mix of sunny and rainy periods, with mild to warm temperatures throughout," according to the Old Farmer's Almanac.

The average temperature is predicted to be 63 degrees, two degrees higher than normal, with 4.5 inches of rainfall forecast, 1 inch higher than normal.

When is the first day of fall in Oregon?

Fall officially begins on Sept. 22. The first day of fall, also known as the autumnal equinox, aligns with the position of the sun in relation to Earth and is based on the astrological calendar.
